This book focuses on four former Soviet sub-regions - the Baltic Sea region, the Slavic republics, the Black Sea region and Central Asia - to explore the degree to which 'democratic security' has been established. It discusses the idea of 'democratic security', which includes de-politicisation and civilian oversight of the military, resolution of conflicts by international co-operation and involvement in international organisations. It examines how far states in these regions have developed co-operative foreign and security policies towards their immediate neighbours and key Western states and organisations, explores the interplay between internal and external aspects of democratic security building and uses case study examples to show how interstate bilateral and multilateral relations are developing.
